[10/27] Freaknight X [18+][sea]
 FREAKNIGHT returns for its tenth anniversary! This very special installment of the FREAKNIGHT saga will be a much more intimate affair in comparison to previous years, but will be keeping all the qualities that make FREAKNIGHT the biggest and best electronic music festival in the Northwest! From the crazy costumes, to the top notch international talent, to the premier production values, this is the FREAKNIGHT we have all been waiting for as… USC Events and Electra-Fi Entertainment proudly present… FREAKNIGHT X THE NORTHWEST’S TENTH ANNUAL HALLOWEEN RITUAL Friday OCTOBER 27th 2006 FREMONT STUDIOS 155 N 35TH Seattle, WA Featuring THREE MASSIVE performance areas… area01  THE CRYSTAL METHOD (DJ SET!) “The Crystal Method’s Drive” now available at iTunes | www.thecrystalmethod.com | Los Angeles, CA Ever since they started making their first singles in the mid 90’s out of the Bomb Shelter--their congested home studio in Los Angeles, California--Ken Jordan and Scott Kirkland of The Crystal Method have held strong as forerunners of the electronic music revolution in America. A Grammy nomination; a slot on Linkin Park’s recent monster benefit for their Music For Relief fund; catwalk DJ’s for Rock ‘N Republic’s Fall 2004 Los Angeles Fashion Week show; and “Community Service,” their popular Friday night weekly radio show on Indie 103.1 FM--these are all small parts of what makes up The Crystal Method’s overall recent presence. The follow-up mix album in 2005 is dedicated to bringing fans the freshest and most exciting selections in what they love most: break-beat music.  DJ ICEY Y4K CD RELEASE TOUR | Distinctive Records | System Recordings | Zone Records | www.djicey.com | Florida Discovered by BBC Radio 1 DJ and longtime A&R kingpin Pete Tong, Icey became the first American producer to sign to his ffrr label in 1997 as an artist, and then the first American DJ to be selected to record a prestigious "Essential Mix". With over 200 12” singles under his production belt, the “King of Breaks” has SoundScanned over 300,000 units in North America alone.  DONALD GLAUDE Eden Recordings | Durty Records | www.donaldglaude.com | www.edenrecordings.net | Tacoma, WA Over the past 14 years, Donald Glaude has created vibrant musical landscapes for audiences up and down the West Coast. Born in Tacoma, Glaude grew up listening to George Clinton's Parliament Funkadlic and R&B radio. Living in Tacoma, which lacked a club scene at the time, Glaude taught himself to mix with a pair of mismatched turntables and a Radio shack mixer. He began to DJ anywhere he could in the Seattle and Tacoma area, working the same clubs as another up-and-coming DJ by the name of Dan. Together DJ Dan and Donald sparked the rave scene in Seattle and have developed large underground followings. The best way to experience Donald Glaude is in person. A fan of music as well as an accomplished DJ, Glaude continues to provide the best evening around.  DJ BABY ANNE “BABY ANNE ROCKS” In Stores October 17, 2006 | www.bassqueen.com | Zone Records | System Recordings | Florida Motivated by her good friend DJ Icey, DJ, Producer and future Mixtress , Florida ’s Baby Anne first shimmied behind the turntables in 1992. Soon after meeting at a local Orlando gig, Icey encouraged the fledgling DJ as she educated herself with the tricks of the trade, and shortly thereafter, Baby Anne began getting bookings. As they say, once she bought her first set of Technics SL 1200’s, there was no looking back. To date, DJ Baby Anne has released over six CD compilations: “Bass Queen In The Mix” (1999), “Bass Queen In The Mix 2” (2000), “Dark Side of the Boom” (2001), “I’m About To Break” (2002), “Mixed Live” (2003) and “Mixtress” (2004). Each successive release has demonstrated her increasing prowess behind the decks, including not only her indelible rockin’ sound, but at least one of her own productions as well. Having received rave reviews and press coverage in publications ranging from top-50 market dailies such as The Miami Herald and The World-Herald, to major weeklies such as New Times and Orlando Weekly to popular fanzines such as Lunar Magazine and Club Planet, DJ Baby Anne definitely has a positive career trajectory. Undoubtedly America ’s most popular female Breaks DJ, Baby Anne is making her mark on the nation, one badass breakbeat at a time.  DJ DIG-DUG USC Events | www.djdig-dug.com | Seattle, WA Making his USC debut at Freak Night 2, Doug McIntyre has been one of USC’s flagship artists ever since. Originally from Portland, OR, Doug gained inspiration from DJ Czech (Vancouver, BC), who led him to the unique and clever combination of speed garage and bassline-heavy breaks that became his signature sound. His track, “Crowd Control” featuring lyrics by DJ Swamp (available on the USC6 compilation CD) is further proof that his extensive technical training and creative ideas set him apart from the rest. The future looks incredibly bright for this DJ/Producer/Sound Engineer.  vs.  RYLE vs. SOULKID Next Level | Lovetribe | F8 | Seattle, WA NL's own hard bangin' beat freaker bringing the boom with some brand new original tracks, slammin floor burners and tricks up his sleeve! There ain't no denying Soulkid's reputation for being a top notch ambassador of Breaks and grabbing crowds attention. If you want it full of bass, Soulkid is just what the doctor orderd! area02  JUDGE JULES (FIRST EVER SEATTLE 18+ APPEARANCE!) BBC Radio 1 | Judgement Sundays | www.judgejules.net | United Kingdom Jules began playing in 1987, launching the career that has easily notched up hundreds of thousands of miles, millions of spins of the decks and countless gigs in far-flung destinations, as well as the odd dirty warehouse thrown in for good measure. Jules’ DJ sets are the epitome of what DJing is about – passion, amazing tunes and a set of hands capable of the most nimble of mixing. With a list of awards that would make the American Olympic team blush, Jules has earned his place amongst the DJ aristocracy. Rarely out of DJ Mag’s top 10 in the annual Top 100 DJs poll, Jules has won such accolades as – “Best DJ” (Muzik Awards), No.1 DJ (Mixmag reader’s poll), “Best International DJ” (Dancestar), and “Best Radio DJ” at the Smirnoff Dancestars. Awards aside, there is no doubt that Jules remains one of the most popular figures in dance music, both home and abroad.  DJ IRENE DJ Irene Presents: "ULTRA TRANCE VOL. 6" CD RELEASE | Los Angeles, CA The cult of DJ Irene began at Hollywood’s mega club Arena. Here, her DJ and life dramas played out through her mixing and publicly on the dance floor. This only made people love her more and helped her to see how she could give back by leading a positive life with the music. She says, “At one point I realized that I am not just playing records to the same people every weekend. These people care about me, more than I care for myself. I knew I had to make them proud by being proud of myself, by taking care of myself, by being the best.” So what? Another girl DJ. Not in this case. She doesn’t go topless, doesn’t smile coquettishly or seductively for the camera, she didn’t just start mixing 3-5 yrs. ago when it became cool. DJ Irene is DJ culture in all its brazen, globetrotting, mythic womanizing, beat banging, trend raising and trend killing glory. If you consider yourself knowledgeable about the DJ world but haven’t seen DJ Irene yet then you haven’t seen one of the most entertaining and engaging DJs in the biz. Find out where she will be at next and don’t let nothing stop you from getting there. Be fearless, like her.  DJ TAJ USC Events | 1015 | Endup | www.djtaj.com | myspace.com/djtajsf | San Francisco A San Francisco native and DJ since 1991, DJ Taj emotes the artistic essence of the city’s counter culture history. He has both a unique look and mixing style that garners significant attention. Coupled with his diversity is his passion and dedication to the art of being a musician. His hard work has lead him to prestigious West Coast residencies with two of the most successful and well known production companies – Spundae Productions of San Francisco and United State of Consciousness. Always a favorite, and always amazing, Taj will no doubt live up to and surpass all expectations!  KAZELL Influx Audio | Giant | www.kazell.com | Los Angeles, CA Kevin Bazell, known more popularly in dance circles as Kazell, has infected the American club scene with his unique brand of electronic dance music, stimulating crowds everywhere with his tough, funky and soulful grooves. A UK native and LA transplant, Kazell first arrived on US shores in 1991. He has consistently been handpicked to perform with massive headliners including Sasha, John Digweed, Deep Dish and Sander Kleinenberg. Recently, the LA Times dubbed him as the "hottest thing in warm-up," a testament to his special ability to manipulate the energy of the music in ways that are always exciting, innovative and intrinsically intriguing to the fans. After first working with Sasha & Digweed on their U.S. Northern Exposure Tour in 1995, Kazell was also chosen by John Digweed for a guest spot on his prestigious Kiss FM radio show. In addition, Kazell was requested to be the opening DJ when John recorded his Global Underground 019 album at the historic Mayan Theatre in Los Angeles. Kazell is widely recognized as one of America's brightest talents and his popularity has been growing steadfast. Kazell will release his debut mixed compilation CD "Driven" with Velocity Records. "Driven" had such a great response from the press and music fans, Jive Magazine named the compilation "Best DJ Mixed CD for 2003". With DJ tours in the UK, Japan, Germany, plus an extended US tour in support of the album release, it's easy to see why he has drawn the attention of the world's top jocks, promoters, critics and clubbing fans alike. Keep an eye on Kazell - his music and passion for the dance music scene guarantee that he will constantly be driven to new heights.  vs.  EVA vs. CHRONUS Special USC vs. Electra-Fi Tag Team Set! | USC Events | Electra-Fi | www.myspace.com/djeva | www.myspace.com/djchronus | Seattle, WA Eva’s legendary sets have won the hearts of many, and gained her a legion of fans in the process. Her expertise behind the decks have placed her alongside the world’s most famous names: Tiesto, Paul Oakenfold, Paul Van Dyk, Judge Jules, John Digweed, Felix Da Housecat and Benny Benassi, are just some of the giant list that reads like the who’s who of dance music. Regarded as one of the Northwest's best progressive DJs, Chronus has rocked Seattle's most prolific clubs, opened for some of the biggest names in the industry, and extended his reach as far as Circus in Hollywood. Coined "Seattle's progressive prodigy" (by Hardscience Recordings) and acclaimed by MarQ, "Chronus is the prog master of Seattle, his top notch track selection, and rock solid mixing are unmatched...".  vs.  MB vs. SCOTT KEITH Special USC vs. Electra-Fi Tag Team Set! | USC Events | Electra-Fi | www.myspace.com/djmb007 | www.myspace.com/djscottkeith | Seattle, WA Behind the decks Mb has spent time circling the globe to share his sound in some of clublands top destinations - Ibiza, London, and New York. He's performed with world class Dj's BT, Josh Wink, Dave Ralph, Tall Paul, Gabriel and Dresden - to name a few. Most recently, MB's focus has been in the studio and his latest collaboration has found it's way in to the record bags of DJ's James Zabiela, Satoshie Tomiie, Tyler Stadius, Grant Dell, and Jay Tripwire.

These opportunities have allowed Scott to work alongside some of the biggest names in the business - James Holden, Christopher Lawrence, Jimmy Van M, Ferry Corsten, BT, and more, as well as playing shows around the United States and Internationally. In 2006 Scott was invited to play at the Ultra Music Festival in Miami, Florida and is now part of the Ultra Music team. Although taking the next step into the world of music production has been slow, 2006 will no doubt see the release of several musical ideas that have been floating around in Scott's head for sometime. With a focus on playing memorable music and layering it in a way that moves minds and bodies, DJing is a passion that has come naturally. Striving to make each show he performs unique to not only further challenge himself, but inspire you to recognize that the passion for music, emotion, and dance is alive in all of us. area03  APRHODITE Aphrodite Recordings | United Kingdom DJ Aphrodite aka Gavin King, is the man behind the Aphrodite Recordings. It all started way back in the summer of love '88' running a club in called Aphrodite, the namesake has been with since. Through various chance meetings in City Sounds Urban Shakedown.

TECH ITCH & DYLAN Tech Itch Recordings | Obscene | Freak | Tech Freaks | Metalheadz | Penetration Records | Renegade Hardware | United Kingdom During 1991 Mark Caro was based in Birmingham, DJing at local UK hardcore parties. He soon started out on the production trail, with a very limited set up, producing hardcore techno. As his musical production skills and talent developed he released tracks as Ent. T through the Ibiza label. Introduced by a mutual friend, Mark soon formed a partnership with Darren Beale. As a duo they were moving away from the conventions of hardcore, following breakbeat into the less static realms of jungle. The pair's earliest tracks came toward the peak end of the UK hardcore scene. Technical Itch is now widely known as being only Mark Caro, and his original tracks are widely renowned for their unique style, high level of production and programming. The name Dylan needs no introduction when it comes to drum & bass, He has been at the top of the scene for some time now and this is well deserved! Dylan began back in the Electro era buying records and mixing them up on a couple of budget turntables, He then followed the music and studied all the different genres, evolving from Electro to Hip Hop to House and finally, his life…Drum n’ Bass! From his residency at the Renegade Hardware nights at The End in Central London, to across the U.S., South Africa, Europe, Puerto Rico and, of course, the U.K., Dylan’s djing has been consistently crippling dancefloors for years. His style ranges from demented darkness to ghetto funk, always retaining those trademark hard-driving, solid beats. In 2004 Technical Itch merged his Tech Itch Recordings with Dylan's Freak Recordings to create Tech Freak Recordings. The natural progression has led to long-term projects with MC Jakes, Dieselboy, Kemal, and a long list of others who compliment their unique style of music.  RED ONE RAM Records | United Kingdom Scott Bourne aka Red One is nothing short of a drum and bass expert; he knows everything there is to know about drum&bass for the most part because he does everything there is to do in drum & bass almost on a daily basis! He DJs, produces, engineers, manages, promotes, you name it… he does it all. Just about everyone in the scene knows him and everyone respects him, so much so that what he and Ram Records choose to do many often choose to follow…  ZACHARIA 360BPM | Seattle, WA Zach Stone (aka Zacharia) has been one of Seattle's most influential drum & bass DJ's for the past 10 years. Founder of 360BPM, Zach's role in putting Seattle on the map as a "junglist" scene has been monumental and well received by talent all over the world.  THE DOWLZ KAOS Theory | Seattle, WA Jeff Dowling (aka The Dowlz) started DJing drum and bass and hip hop turntablism with a few friends back in early 1999. Since then, The Dowlz has played a major role in the tremendous growth and excellent reputation that the Seattle drum and bass scene has recieved.  ROB NOBLE KVT | Seattle, WA Bio coming soon. A message from Chad Anderson, President of USC Events... "Freaknight over the years has become the staple event of Seattle's electronic music scene. Our reason for booking the artists we have done is that they have played for us over the years and we have all grown together as artists and friends.

Pretty decent lineup.
I've never seen Icey before and would love to see him as well as Judge Jules. I saw Aphrodite at the Lotus a few years back and im not too keen on drum and bass but he did in fact impress me. Wont be heading down to this one because I've decided to spend my Halloween locally. Good luck on the show! :) edit: Quote:
